(Get the code!)
Phillip, the goal is BOTH secure boot AND encryption. This bug report specifically deals with the latter, not the former. Why are you so against encryption? I don't understand!
In the EU, GDPR is law, and in the rest of the world, encryption is pretty much already de rigueur.
If you are arguing that /boot shouldn't be encrypted, this is a direct contradiction of what you wrote earlier that malware can be loaded into the ESP; so why couldn't malware be loaded into /boot?
Please would you explain why you think that we should NOT encrypt /boot? The rest of us here are mystified; we should encrypt as much as possible in order to increase the barriers to black hats.
